Precision Alignment for Critical Power Transmission
When your gearbox is out of alignment, it’s not just efficiency that suffers—it’s the entire drivetrain. Misalignment introduces vibration, increases bearing and seal wear, and shortens the lifespan of your most valuable mechanical systems.
At Rotatek, we deliver precision gearbox alignment using advanced laser systems and 3D metrology to ensure your gearboxes, motors, and driven equipment are perfectly aligned to OEM tolerances—or better.

Ensure your drivetrain operates at peak performance with precision gearbox alignment. Rotatek utilizes advanced laser and 3D measurement systems to correct misalignment, reduce vibration, and extend the life of bearings, seals, and couplings. From horizontal reducers to multi-stage gear systems, our solutions are engineered for durability, efficiency, and uptime.
Gearboxes are at the heart of power transmission in nearly every industrial application. Proper alignment of the gearbox input and output shafts is critical to:
Prevent premature bearing and seal failure
Reduce torque loss and energy consumption
Eliminate harmful vibration and noise
Improve load distribution across gear trains
Extend the service life of couplings and drive systems
Even slight misalignment can compound over time, leading to costly downtime and unexpected repairs.
Our gearbox alignment service is essential in:
Steel & Paper Mills
Power Generation Plants
